President's Day

Monday is President’s Day – the federal holiday that honors George Washington. Most of us have the day off and will enjoy the day by shopping or relaxing. Some of us may even spend a little time learning about the U.S. Presidents. And just maybe, a few people will want to skip the sales and make a charitable donation in honor of the holiday. If that applies to you, then consider one of the following presidential charities, check out our list of charities that Support the Troops or use our site to review thousands of charity ratings for one that matches your philanthropic interests.
